How recruiter verification works
No jargon and no over-promising. Verification is an identity check that confirms a named person represents an organisation — nothing more. Here is exactly what happens.
A verified recruiter on GeraJobs is an employer or in-house recruiter whose link to a named organisation we have confirmed — by checking that you control an email address at the organisation’s domain and, where you provide one, that the organisation’s public registration identifier (a Companies House number, or for care providers a CQC provider ID) matches a real registered entity. Verification confirms who you are. It is not a rating, an endorsement, a guarantee of the roles you post, or any form of regulatory approval by GeraJobs.

Tell us which organisation you represent
Give the organisation name exactly as it should appear, your name, and a work email at the organisation’s domain. Optionally add a Companies House number, or — if you are a care provider — a CQC provider ID, which lets us confirm the entity faster.

We confirm you represent it
We email the work address you gave to confirm you control it, and where you supplied a registration identifier we check it matches a real registered entity on the relevant public register. This is an identity check, not an assessment of the organisation.

Your organisation is marked verified
Once confirmed, listings under your organisation show a “verified recruiter” marker that means one thing: a named representative has been confirmed. You can correct aggregated listings, add a direct apply link, or have a listing removed — all free.

What verification confirms
- A named person has confirmed they represent the organisation.
- They control a work email at the organisation’s domain.
- Where a company/provider ID was given, it matches a real registered entity.
- The organisation can correct, claim, or remove its own listings.
What it is not
- It is NOT an endorsement, rating, or quality score by GeraJobs.
- It is NOT a guarantee about any specific role, salary, or vacancy.
- It is NOT a regulatory approval — GeraJobs is not a regulator.
- It does NOT replace right-to-work, DBS, or registration checks when you hire.

GeraJobs is a job board, not a recruitment agency and not a regulator. We publish your adverts and pass applications to you directly. We do not place, supply, or vet staff; we do not carry out right-to-work, DBS, or professional-registration checks; and candidates are never charged to apply. Verification confirms that you represent the organisation named on your listings — nothing more. Right-to-work, DBS, and any professional-registration checks remain the employer’s responsibility. Fees and rules change — confirm the current position with the relevant official source before acting. Facts reviewed July 2026.
